In other news from Washington, Democratic Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey of California plans to introduce a congressional resolution today calling on President Bush to begin the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq. Woolsey said “The military option is clearly not working. It is truly time to support the troops, by bringing them home as soon as realistically possible.” The Bush administration has given no sign that a withdrawal will occur anytime soon. On Monday a top Army official said 120,000 U.S. troops will remain in Iraq thru 2006. The New York Times reports today that part of the $80 billion requested by Bush for the war will likely be spent on creating permanent U.S. military bases in Iraq.
